Hi Mojca,

very simple: just configure with '--disable-xetex --disable-bibtexu', i.e.,
run "./Build --disable-xetex --disable-bibtexu".  That will cause xetex and
bibtexu and consequently also icu not to be built.

BTW: you could similarly add 'MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.4' and
'LDFLAGS=whatever', no need to modify the Build script.  Please read
README.cross for the proper way to cross compile.

Some of the warnings in your earlier mail are certainly annoying but as far
as I can see they should all be harmless.

Regards
Peter
